Marching slowly one by one, With their faces like the sun, In their white robes, like aorae fair Phantoms wave of sky and air, Stern the old preceptor stands, Grasps the rule within his hanls, . Grim and selemn as he looks, With a wise air learned from books. Neath his steady, sunken eye. Something softer I decry, O, child-hearted pedagogue, Fortrraattis loves the, rogue. Thou a knarled oak bent by storm, Cherish in a satyr's form; x Will they love thee; thy divine, All the sweetness that is thine; la the hard liDes of thy face. Deeper tenderness can trace. They have seenjhy fingers stray In that kindly, absent way, With thy hand caressing laid On the head of some bright maid. While thy face a giory swept, And a sudden radiance leapt To those faded, snnken eyes Like a flash from clouded skies. Ah, he holds their sunny locks Sweeter than his dreary books, Tender master, little flock, I shall envy not, nor mock, What are empires and great things, Lands, and jewels, and crowns of Kings, All the wealth sunk in the seas, To be high in hearts like these? rvUBYrS LETTER A letter from Sir. J. V. Rubv, Union City, Ind., says' "I have used your Clarke's Extract of Flax (Pa pillon) Cough Cure and find it a complete), cure for deep seated cold. It has done more than two of our most skillful physicians. My chil dren had the Whooping Congh and with the f id of your Cough Cure, they had it Very light compared with my neighbor's children who did not take it. I believe it to be the best cough cure in the market." So it is. A large bottle only $1.00. Oarke's Flax Soap for the skin. It leads them all. Price 25 cants.
